But then, at least, they could be disproved quickly, for any- one interested could go to Yunnan, or wherever, and find out the truth for himself. This can no longer be done, and the fantasie persist for months. A case in point was an al gument, still un- resol ved, about a nearby questIon of fact in the spring of last year: Were or were not the Chinese Reds building up a large troop concentration In Kwangsi Province, four hundred miles west of Hong Kong, as a threat to the French across the border in Indo- China? Some of the hest intelligence [nen here-Hong Kong is a popular spot for intelligence work-maintained that such a huildup existed, and they could give plenty of details. Their dope appar- entl) came from Chinese travellers on the Canton-Hankow railway, a main artery serving both Hong Kong and Kwangsi. On the other hand, the '- French military, who had a powerful force gUdrding the Kwangsi border, and supposedly good ground intelligence, denied that there was any buildup to speak of. They did so even though it seemingly would have been to their ad- vantage-in getting more American help, '-say-to'- clair;; otherwise. The French version was reinforced by stories of wholesale anti-Cornl11unist guerrilla troubles that kept drifting out of Kwangsi-troubles that could scarcely have ari en had there been a large build- up. These opposed, yet professional and expert, views of Kwangsi affairs pros- pered side by side in Hong Kong, and reporters could take their choice. Some did, and fiat accounts of each version were sent abroad, without qualification. · '"The question was never settled, because \\i hen the Korean war began, l110st of the better C0111111unist units in South China ,vere shipped north, and the buildup., 1{ indeed there had been one, evapordted. In the year and a half since then, the problem of guesswork news reports has got worse. In Hong Kong now, you can learn that the airfields outside Can- ton, about ninety miles away, are being improved and lengthened to take heavy bombers or jets; } ou can also learn that the fields are neglected and grass is glowing on their runw.:.ys. It is often repo} ted thdt huge Russian airfields and subn1arine bases are being completed on Haindn, d Red Chinese island outpost three hundred 111iles southwest of here; few Hong Kong observers believe these reports, but the} cannot be disproved.
